Did you know that early detection can increase the survival rate of cancer to 80%, while later-stage diagnosis reduces it to below 20%? At Aluma Wellness, we emphasize prevention to identify potential health concerns, like cancer, before they progress. That’s why we offer comprehensive full-body MRI health scans as part of our preventive care services for residents of Orlando and surrounding areas.
An MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) scan is a non-invasive procedure that makes detailed images of organs and tissues inside the body using strong magnetic fields and radio waves, giving the doctor essential information about your health and playing a vital role in the early detection of cancer. With a high-end MRI machine and professional staff, we guarantee precise results while making the process easy for every patient. Schedule a consultation today, and take control of your well-being.
An MRI full-body scan is an imaging test that enables healthcare professionals to see organs, tissues, bones, and blood vessels throughout the body. MRIs do not use harmful radiation, unlike imaging methods such as X-rays or CT scans. Instead, they rely on magnetic fields to produce high-quality images.
During the scan, you will lie on a table that slides into a large, tube-shaped machine. This machine creates a magnetic field and transmits radio waves through your body. The signals are then captured and converted by a computer into detailed images.
MRI scans can be used for a wide range of applications, but they are more important for preventing cancer. They are especially effective for early diagnosis as they can detect abnormal changes in the tissue organs significantly before the problems can be seen through other imaging tests. As mentioned, early cancer detection significantly improves the chances of successful treatment.
MRI full-body health scans are also highly beneficial for monitoring individuals with a history of cancer or those who have completed treatment. They help detect potential recurrence or changes that may require further medical attention.
